The correct answer is (a)3 (b)4 (c)1 (d)2. Detailed Matching and Explanationa) Independence of Judiciary — 3) Appointment and transfer of JudgesExplanation: The independence of the judiciary is maintained through a specific process of appointment and transfer that limits interference from the executive. In India, this is largely managed through the "Collegium System," which ensures that judges are not subject to political pressure.b) Executive Legislation — 4) OrdinanceExplanation: Typically, making laws is the job of the Legislature. However, under Article 123 (for the President) and Article 213 (for Governors), the Executive can issue an Ordinance when Parliament or the State Assembly is not in session. This is a form of "Executive Legislation."c) Quasi-judicial function — 1) Administrative AdjudicationExplanation: When administrative bodies or tribunals (which are part of the executive branch) resolve disputes or exercise powers similar to a court, it is called Administrative Adjudication. Because they act like a court but are not part of the formal judiciary, their function is termed "Quasi-judicial."d) Collective responsibility — 2) Parliamentary form of GovernmentExplanation: Collective responsibility is the "bedrock" principle of the parliamentary system. As per Article 75, the Council of Ministers is collectively responsible to the Lok Sabha. This means the entire ministry sinks or swims together; if a No-Confidence Motion is passed, the whole cabinet must resign.
